Pregnancy induced carpal tunnel

I am due with my second in April and have recently began noticing my right arm throbs and falls asleep at night even if I am not laying on them and it is getting worse my hand goes numb and hurts constantly along with my wrist. I am pretty certain that it is pregnancy induced carpal tunnel and will call the dr tomorrow but who could have guessed pregnancy can affect south of your body... Ugh

I had this last pregnancy and it SUCKED. Every day at work hurt (lots of repetitive motion with hands) all I could do was wear carpel tunnel wrist brace and try to limit some activities at work. Good luck... Hope it doesn't get too bad.

I had carpal tunnel before I was pregnant. If all but your pinky finger is numb when you wake up, then that's carpal tunnel. Wearing a wrist splint specifically for carpal tunnel at night should help ease the pain. I got surgery on my left hand but never got the chance with my right before getting pregnant.
